What illnesses are you seeing already?

I've had 5 cases of Strep so far, 4 of pneumonia, and 2 cases of Fifth's...lots of runny noses and coughs as well. Three teachers went home sick on Friday with lost voice and fever. It's going to be a long Winter...

Oh wow. Sorry to hear this. I am just having a random headache, belly ache. Not much yet. But the weather has been amazing here in good ole Missouri.

I had a few kiddos with hand, foot, and mouth at the start of the year and a family that passed around strep, but right now it's mostly kids coming in in casts from weekend accidents! And the ever present cases of pretend illness!

Strep, strep, and more strep. Then the usual headaches and stomachaches.

1 strep so far. We just had a super rainy weekend, first time it rained that hard in a long time. Other than that we are still cooling off from a late summer. Who knows what will pop in today?

Well, my sciatica has been flared up recently, and I am just getting over this darn cold.

OOOOOooooohhhhh. You meant the students.

I have seen lots of GI stuff this year. Big burly football players being brought to their knees by diarrhea. Legit vomiting. I have heard of a few cases of strep as well, but I haven't seen any of them in my office. Not technically an illness, but I have seen so. many. concussions.
